- • In private room, It needed bit more lighting. The shower and sink taps were only working half-heartedly. The ventilation duct carried the smell of cigarettes back in. Specially at night time...
As usual, cheap and close to the Lanes and Pinball Shoppe in bond St.

- • Disgusting hotel, we got there and the room was out of a horror movie. Went downstairs to ask for another room and the lady kindly gave us a “better” room. Room was way smaller, bed was tiny, but at least the bathroom was a bit better. SO DIRTY. Do not recommend. They have “we are upgrading the hotel” as an excuse but that just is not normal. The lifts look like they’re about to fall down. And they call themselves “hotel” how?. I never complain but this did let me down a lot! The bedding looked and smelled like they’ve never been changed which is disgusting and couldn’t get good sleep as the mattress is very uncomfortable. Just booked this as we had to be in the station very early morning but would never recommend this place. This morning when we were going to check out said hello to the staff and neither of them (two men) said anything back. Extremely rude. Wish I took more pictures so you guys know what you’re booking
Nice and friendly,
